Xander Cage has led quite a life, he's been an extreme sports celebrity with his own TV show, worked as an undercover spy for the National Security Agency and saved the world from a deadly toxin being released. Xander wasn't exactly the most obvious person to become a spy as his celebrity status made him know around the world but his arrogance and known run-ins with the cops are will publicised.
He was recruited by NSA Agent Augustus Gibbons who saw potential in the daredevil. To test his skills, Gibbon's dropped Cage into a number of life threatening situations including an armed robbery and an escape from a cocaine plantation run by violent cartel bosses. Having successfully completed his tests, Xander found himself face to face with a Russia mobster who was planning to release toxic matter which is capable of killing millions. His mission was a success and he also found love with a Russian FSB agent called Yelena. Realising that the life of a spy isn't all it's cut out to be, the pair retire to Bora Bora.
Years later a crooked agent called Cobb is thought to have assassinated Cage leading to Gibbon's to find a new XXX agent - a title that only seems temporary for its holders.
When Gibbons learns of Cage's survival, he sends one of the NSA's best teams to bring him back to the states. The NSA agent approaches Cage with a new deal and explains that even though civilisation is thought to be in a safe period, there are still lots of bad guys wanting to do as much damage to the world as possible and the NSA once again need an untraditional type of agent to work on a mission.
An alpha warrior going by the name of Xiang is planning on releasing a weapon called Pandora's Box. Cage and small team of alternative spies must infiltrate and stop Xiang before it's too late.
